Source description
As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.
Summary Alist's offline-download feature (POST /api/fs/addofflinedownload with tool: "SimpleHttp") accepts an attacker-supplied URL, fetches it, and saves the bytes under a per-task temp directory before transferring to the user's destination storage. The temp filename is taken from the response's Content-Disposition header (attacker-controlled when the URL points to an attacker HTTP server), passed verbatim to filepath.Join(tempDir, filename), and written via os.Create with no containment check. Go's filepath.Join calls Clean on the result, which collapses .. segments and lets the attacker traverse out of tempDir to write any file the alist process can write. A non-admin user with PermAddOfflineDownload permission on any path is sufficient. Affected code internal/offlinedownload/http/util.go — filename returned verbatim from header: internal/offlinedownload/http/client.go (SimpleHttp.Run): server/handles/offlinedownload.go (AddOfflineDownload) is mounted under normal user auth (not…

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2026-75602 Advisory: OpenList: Authenticated arbitrary file write via Content-Disposition path traversal in SimpleHttp offline-download tool IDs: CVE-2026-75602, GHSA-h6cj-26g5-67fv Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2026-75602 (revision 3, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 15:29 UTC) Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected. Severity: Medium (CVSS 6.5) Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV. Vendor response: Partial vendor fix; fixed versions by package: github.com/OpenListTeam/OpenList 4.2.3; github.com/OpenListTeam/OpenList/v4 4.2.3. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed. ## Affected components - Go github.com/OpenListTeam/OpenList: affected <= 4.2.2; fixed in 4.2.3 - Go github.com/OpenListTeam/OpenList/v3: affected every version - Go github.com/OpenListTeam/OpenList/v4: affected < 4.2.3; fixed in 4.2.3 ## Suggested inspection (read-only) - Go github.com/OpenListTeam/OpenList: check the installed version with your package manager. - Go github.com/OpenListTeam/OpenList/v3: check the installed version with your package manager. - Go github.com/OpenListTeam/OpenList/v4: check the installed version with your package manager. ## Supported action No complete vendor fix is recorded. Follow the primary source's mitigation guidance and check this record again before closing anything. ## Required regression checks - Run the test suite and a production build. - Exercise the features that depend on github.com/OpenListTeam/OpenList, github.com/OpenListTeam/OpenList/v3, github.com/OpenListTeam/OpenList/v4. - Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed. ## Rollback considerations - Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward. ## Unresolved questions - Which deployments run an affected version? - Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority. - Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production. ## Sources - Verified: https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-h6cj-26g5-67fv (OSV record GHSA-h6cj-26g5-67fv lists affected ranges: Go github.com/OpenListTeam/OpenList >=0 <4.2.3 (fixed)) - Verified: https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GO-2026-6368 (OSV record GO-2026-6368 lists affected ranges: Go github.com/OpenListTeam/OpenList >=0; Go github.com/OpenListTeam/OpenList/v3 >=0; Go github.com/OpenListTeam/OpenList/v4 >=0 <4.2.3 (fixed)) - Verified: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-h6cj-26g5-67fv (GitHub-reviewed advisory GHSA-h6cj-26g5-67fv lists affected ranges: Go github.com/OpenListTeam/OpenList >=0 <=4.2.2) Commands are suggestions: review each one before running it.
